IVSA
IVSA Program

Micro-placements for OSSD/DESO students.

Short paid projects that give secondary students real work experience — and help employers see how a candidate works before they hire.

For students

  • Paid 10–40 hour projects over 2–4 weeks
  • Hours recognized toward Ontario's 40-hour community involvement
  • Can count as a cooperative education placement (with school approval)
  • Real portfolio work — marketing, data, writing, design, code
  • Done on your schedule, fully remote

For employers

  • See how a candidate actually works before any commitment
  • No payroll, HR, or onboarding — IVSA handles contracts
  • Reach motivated students at accredited virtual schools
  • Fast deliverables when your team is at capacity
